Issues with new accounts
 

anyone else having issues making new eBay accounts?

Is it just me, or are they starting to track Canvas Fingerprinting so separate user accounts simply wont work anymore?


Anti detect browsers such as multi login was always a hit or miss with me as well.


If anyone can shed light thats had success and what theyve been using in terms of keeping accounts separate, would be appreciated

What issues are you having?

Suspensions? Reactivates?

It's been a pain in the ass these two months for account creation, more suspensions within 2 days of creation which wasn't normal for me.

Aged accounts that I created and left sitting on the backburner seem to do a little better.

I think it is just the upped security during this time. Still get hit even when using different mobile phones and sims to create accounts.

If you can and have the time, create a bunch of ebay accounts as buyers and let them sit for months on end.

I know of the harder period during the holidays - that might still be in effect.

I'm still not sold on the anti-detect browser use

Mine in uk went down within mins. They wouldn’t tell me. Everything was new!

Just get physical laptops, why even bother going with multi login or anti detect browsers, when you can avoid all of that and start fresh with a 100$ laptop...

Having a new user account is like having a new laptop. No cookies etc.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Clearly not

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Nobodies confirmed that’s the prob

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Same method used back in sept/oct doesn't work in dec/jan. I think security got improved

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Multilog in has been hit and miss for years

Thing like VMware as well don't really work

New user account is always the best thing. Programs like adapower also work

Then you have to make sure you use a good IP

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Do the old rules still apply now in terms of don’t list straight away. Build cookies over a few weeks etc.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Honestly depends on how you create the accounts, but new account creation during the holidays are very difficult.

If you can manage to create buyer accounts and let them sit for months when times where new accounts get dinged. That would be the time to bring them out.

My newly created accounts I list buy it now but listings typically take 2 days to appear. While my backburner accounts that have been sitting for months, listings appear almost instantly.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Guys what you mean with holidays ? Mid January ? All over January ?
Maybe February ? When we can say holidays over in Ebay terms.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Are all your 'backburner accounts' identical in that they are made with all your true info that's on your drivers licence?

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Holiday shopping is over on Ebay.
For AMZN,returns can last till April.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Some people still abide by this - other people swear by listing right away - choices...

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

But still getting many bans on new accounts.
This makes me think its not realy over.
Ebay has 90 days option to open claims, mabe this also impact.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

You mean buyer can open disputes within 90 days on Ebay?
If they use a credit card,it is 180 days.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Ebay needs more buyers,not more sellers.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

I think christmas ban wave is still not ower.
It is easyer if we compare with December but still there is something left “ on “ on other side.

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

I've always said that the ban waves last well into February.

Never needed any anti detect stuff, new user accounts and bob's your uncles

Re: Issues with new accounts
 

Sounds right in general except for the new user accounts....those are good to use
